Because you LOVE our Asian cooking classes, we have added two new ones to our Winter/Spring class schedule at The Culinary Center of Kansas City, both taught by our fun and talented cooking instructor, Chef Yvette Hirang… (BTW, oishii means “yummy.”)
Wake Up Little Sushi!
Wed, Jan 20, 2016 | 6:30 – 9:00 p.m.
Join us tonight as we learn how to make sushi! One of our most popular classes will be taught this evening by Chef Yvette Hirang, who will show us how to make the basic types of rolls and get you rollin’ yourself with some hands-n action. We’ll also learn about sushi rice, the ingredients used with sushi, such as wasabi and pickled ginger, how to safely store fish and where and how to buy sushi-grade fish. We’ll learn hand-rolling techniques and presentation of our sushi. Sushi always delivers on flavor and fun, so come learn what terms like Nigiri, Temaki and Maki mean. Oishii. (That means ‘yummy’ in Japanese.) You’re crazy if you think you can’t do it yourself. Now you can make sushi in YOUR kitchen. This Hands-On class includes Tastings, so let’s get our sushi on!
